from the arrival of new babies to the delivery of new cars. ive attended weddings, parties and religious celebrations in countries such as argentina and japan, and ive noticed that gold-the metal or the color of it-is always part of cultural events, traditions and celebrations.it makes me wonder: why do people love gold?for some people, gold seems to be a status(地位)symbol. indian businessman datta phuge loves gold so much that he even bought a shirt made of gold at a cost of $250,000. im not sure id spend so much money on a shirt, would you? but datta phuge has his reason .he explains,“ some people want to own an audi or a mercedes. i choose gold.”for other people, gold is an investment(投资). the price of gold generally increases over time and in european markets, it reached even $1,500 per ounce in 2011.and for many people, a family heirloom（传家宝）brings together status and investment. my mother has a gold bracelet（手镯）that was given to her by her grandmother who, in turn, inherited it from her own grandmother. its quite a heavy piece and probably worth quite a lot of money. but its mental value is greater than its value in dollars. its a beautiful object that holds many family memories. when the time comes, my mum will give the bracelet to me, and one day, ill pass it on to the younger generation.therefore, status and investment are good reasons to value gold. however, i think that the real reason why people love gold is that it can be made into beautiful objects. think about tutankhamens death mask. have you ever seen anything so beautiful?people love gold because it holds their minds, their imaginations and, above all, their hearts.56. the main idea of the first paragraph is that_. a. the author has traveled to many countries b. people celebrate almost everything c. people all over the world love goldd. there are many ways to use gold 57. datta phuge bought a shirt made of gold because_. a. he loves this kind of shirt b. gold is a status symbol to him c. people there love gold so much d. he is a successful businessman58 .according to the passage, in europe, gold could be _per ounce in 2010. a. $1,550 b. $1,500 c. $1,600 d. $1,45059.the gold bracelet is the heirloom for the authors family mainly because_. a. its worth a lot of money b. it brings status and investment c. it holds family memories d. its a beautiful object60. in the authors opinion, the real reason why people love gold is that_. a. it can be made into beautiful objects b. it is a status symbol to some people c. it can be passed on to the younger generation d. it can bring people a lot of moneybguide to stockholm university libraryour library offers different types of studying places and provides a good studying environment.zonesthe library is divided into

bad things while white should always mean something good. this may be because, in their opinion, black is related to darkness and white to purity. however, that is not always the case. did you know that the same one color may mean differently in different places of the world?in the english-speaking world, black is the color of mourning. people wear black clothes at the funeral. red is concerned with danger or bloodshed (流血). yellow is the word for fear. if you are afraid, you are yellow. yet none of these sayings is true outside the english-speaking world. in china and korea white is the color of mourning. in russia, china and some other countries, red stands for beauty, life and excellence. in italy and germany, you are yellow with anger, not with fear.even within the english-speaking area it is not difficult to find color contradictions (矛盾). a redcap in the united states is a porter in a railway station. in britain, however, a redcap is a military policeman. both names are logical because both men wear red caps. similarly, the british term for an american white collar worker is sometimes called a black-coated worker.one does not have to cross an area to find color differences. would you rather be red-blooded? if we go back to the origin, we find that both terms are logical as both names suggest. the expression blueblood comes from spain, where some noble families proudly said that they had blue blood. but then why blue blood? because they were fairskinned, and it is only natural that their blood vessels (血管) stood out appearing blue.66. yellow is concerned with anger in _. a. russia b. britain c. germanyd. china67. the two meanings of the term redcap form a difference in _. a. pronunciationb. climate c. logical relationship d. custom68. both britain and america would probably agree that _. a. black is the color of mourningb. a black-coated worker is employed in an officec. red stands for beauty and excellenced. a redcap is a porter in a station69. the best title for this passage is _. a. the origin of blue bloodb. the development of the symbolic use of colorsc. colors that carry bad meaningsd. the meaning concerned with certain colors70. when some spanish called themselves blueblood, they actually meant _. a. they had heart trouble and their faces looked blueb. they came from a noble familyc. they had blue blood in their vesselsd. they were fairskinnedd“if music is the medicine of the soul(灵魂), let it play on,” said a famous person. i think he said so because probably he got some help from music. music has some strange abilities. medical scientists have found that a person that feels stressed can actually listen to some kind of music and become well.the researchers said that since stress comes as a result of life events such as starting a new family, starting a new business, and starting a new job, one can actually listen to good music and feel good because good music touches the human mind in a positive way. music helps you to forget the life events that make you worried and remember the important events that once happened in your life.depression is a disease cause by stress, smoking, social problems and so on. depression is also caused by problems such as failure in business. depression may bring us weakness, headache, and loss of concentration. good music makes one remember happy moments or good days. if you play music about love, it makes you feel like falling in love again though you may have had several upset experiences. and such good feeling make you healthy.anxiety is another health problem that can be controlled by music. anxiety is a side effect of some major health problems such as cancer of the liver and cancer of the breast. good music makes you feel relaxed and removes the pains from these diseases and you feel all right.good music can send you to sleep. and you need to know that sleep puts your body in a healthy condition. sleep takes away the effects of stress, depression and anxiety from a person.71. according to the famous person in paragraph 1, music can_. a. help you keep healthy in your mind b. treat many kinds of diseasesc. take the place of medicine in treating illness d. make you remember things happened in the past72. good music helps people remove stress mainly by _. a. making people think positively b. letting people have a good sleep c. showing something new to people d. making people focus only on important things第四部分：写作（共两节，满分35分）第一节 阅读表达（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）阅读下面短文并回答问题。 1 the air we breathe is so freely available that we take it for
